Not used, on purpose: aggregator “average PSF” pages, guessed rental yields, guessed MRT price-uplift %. If a figure is not in the HDB file, it is unknown.

This is a market note, not a CMA and not financial advice. Resale prices are what two parties agreed, for that block, floor, lease and condition.
